India Politics LIVE | Marathis have just one hope now - Thackeray brothers: Shiv Sena (UBT) spokesperson Anand Dubey

On Raj Thackeray and Uddhav Thackeray and speculations around them, Shiv Sena (UBT) spokesperson Anand Dubey said, "When both Thackerays shared the stage in Worli, it was purely a social stage. The biggest reason behind that was the honour of 'Marathi manus', speaking in their interest and speaking for the Marathi language. Both of them are tall leaders and head their political parties, so there will be politics. But the goal wasn't political. But since there will be a elections a few months later, if both Thackeray brothers come together on the same stage and contest elections, there will be a great 'aandhi' in Mumbai and neighbouring areas. 'Marathi manus' has been deceived by the BJP...Eknath Shinde has become a slave of Gujarat. So, Marathis have just one hope now - Thackeray brothers. They want to vote for them."
